Happy Halloween everyone! (I know its a few days early, but I'll most likely be drunk, and not in the mood for my computer on the actual date). I've always been fond of Halloween, its a time when you can dress up like something ridiculous (or slutty) and parade around like your the king (bonus points if your costume is actually of a king). As I grew up, Halloween began to change from this childish thing to a more adult reason to have fun, and find cute pumpkin theme'd items (I know, obsession). These two post are going to show you some easy halloween costumes, plus a few Halloween theme'd cupcake and candy ideas. Plus! I'll throw in an amazing Halloween Japanese song for your enjoyment!
Simple Halloween Costumes
1. The Geek
The geek is a simple, yet effective costume. Basically all you need is found at your local amvets, and/or your local thrift shop.
Step One: At the thrift store go and find a pair of plaid, or pants with a design on them.
Step Two: Find a simple white dress shirt (with a collar).
Step Three: Most Amvets and thrift stores do sell glasses, but if they don't go to your local Walmart or Rite Aid (any one stop shop) and find the "reading" glasses that usually cost around 10 to 20$. Buy them, and pop the actual lenses out of the glasses.
Step Four: Place clear tape in many layers around the center of the glasses (to add that wonderful dork effect)
Step Five: Purchase a pair of suspenders, thrifts stores usually have them but you need to search hard.
Step Six: Ridiculous bowties are actually hard to find (believe it or not). The simplest way to add a bowtie to your geek-chiec get up is to purchase a ugly tie. Follow this link to make it into a bow tie (Hint: Purchase a thinner tie, with not a lot of fabric). Link
Step Seven: Put on white socks, with a pair of black or brown shoes. Then combine all the elements for a geek-look!
PS: If you are a male, its best to comb your hair to one side, and make your hair line into a bowl shape. Girls? Piggy tails always work.

Trashed Prom Queen (for Girls). Trashed Drag Queen (For Boys)
1. Step One: Go to any local thrift store and purchase a gaudy prom dress (they usually sell for 5 to 10$)
Step Two: Purchase a pair of glunky high heels, preferable ones that don't match the color of your prom dress.
Step Three: If you are a girl, simple tease your hair in all sorts of directions to give a disheveled look. Boys? Purchase a cheap wig from any costume store (blond usually works best)
Step Four: Apply smudgy makeup to the eyes, and lips. Red for the lips usually works best, and a dark black for the eyes. Remember to rub it slightly off so it looks used and worn.
Step Five: Combine and there you have a "Trashed Prom Queen" or a "Trashed Drag Queen".
